Lindros made it 4-1 with a power play goal at 5:14. Brind’Amour’s shot from the point banked in off Lin dros and past Dallas goalie Manny Fernandez, who got a piece of the puck before it trickled into the net off his blocker. LeClair made it 5-1 with his 100th NHL goal and his 26th of the season, which tied his ca reer high for goals in a season, set last year. He burst through the Dallas de fense and poked his own rebound past Fer nandez at 11:14. The Flyers took a 3-1 lead into the second period, with Renberg scoring the third goal on a play which ap peared to be offsides. LeClair seemed to enter the zone before Lindros, who carried the puck across the line on a 3-on-2. Renberg, streaking down the slot, de flected Lindros’ pass over Fernandez. It was Lindros’ 300th NHL point. The Flyers scored on their first two power plays. PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Eric Lindros had a goal and two assists, notching his 300th NHL point, and John LeClair had two goals and an assist as the Philadelphia Flyers beat the Dallas Stars 6-1 Monday night.

DALLAS (AP) — Jim Jackson scored 29 points and three other Dallas players had at least 20 as the Mavericks overcame Shaquille O’Neal’s inside dominance for a 119-104 victory over the Orlando Magic on Monday night. O’Neal had his way with Dallas’ weak in terior defense, getting 33 points on 14-of-18 shooting in his first game back after missing four games with a strained left quadricep. The Mavericks, meanwhile, spread the ball around and were able to draw O’Neal away from the lane. He was held to just eight rebounds. Jackson, continuing his recent surge, took advantage of O’Neal’s absence under the basket to score many of his points inside. He also was hot from outside, and he cashed in on his free throw chances by hitting 11 of 14. Also frustrating the Magic with their in- side-outside games where George McCloud with 27 points, Popeye Jones with 22 and Jason Kidd with 20. Kidd, who had triple-doubles in his last two games, scored 13 of his points in the fourth quarter.
